HELPING THE WORKING CHILDREN TO DECIDE THEIR FUTURE


The Concerned for Working Children (CWC) is a non-governmental organisation based out of Bangalore, which works with local governments, the community and working children themselves to implement viable, comprehensive and appropriate solutions to the problem of child labour. CWC has many programmes to help children help themselves and protect them from harmful, both physically and emotionally, working conditions.
